Other languages lack the huge image-text collections such training needs: BLIP-2 used over 100M pairs, and Stable Diffusion used over 2B. The authors propose MPM, a training paradigm that uses a multilingual LLM as a… 2. **[Quantifying the Impact of Structured Output Format on Large Language Models through Causal Inference](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yuan-2026-quantifying-impact-structured-output-format/)** *(2026 · 2 citations)* Earlier studies disagree on whether forcing LLMs to answer in structured formats helps or hurts output quality. 3. **[CoAct: Co-Active LLM Preference Learning with Human-AI Synergy](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/xu-2026-coact-co-active-llm-preference/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Preference-based alignment of LLMs depends on human-labelled response pairs, which are costly to collect. Self-rewarding pipelines produce such pairs cheaply, but they can amplify the model's own mistakes. Active preference learning keeps labels trustworthy, yet it leaves most of the unlabeled pool unused. CoAct… 4. **[Topology Matters: Measuring Memory Leakage in Multi-Agent LLMs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/liu-2026-topology-matters-measuring-memory-leakage/)** *(2026)* LLM agents increasingly work in teams that exchange messages over a communication graph. This paper asks how the shape of that graph affects how easily private data stored in one agent's memory can be extracted by a malicious teammate. The authors build MAMA (Multi-Agent Memory Attack), a controlled benchmark. ## All works 5 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 4 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1.
